Project description

duecredit is being conceived to address the problem of inadequate
citation of scientific software and methods, and limited visibility of

automatically collected and reported to the user at the necessary
level of reference detail, i.e. only references for actually used
functionality will be presented back if software provides multiple
citeable implementations.
